ALL ABOARD FLORIDA OPPONENTS PURSUE NEW LEGAL FRONTIER

Martin and Indian River counties have staked millions of dollars on their belief that All Aboard Florida must have financial support from the government to complete its Miami-to-Orlando railroad.

In their federal court case, the counties have presented compelling evidence that the $3.1 billion railroad cannot proceed without tax-exempt bonds, and the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia in August confirmed these claims have merit.
